During the master class, I suggest students with their methods of working with enamel

1. Short introductory lectures on the basics of enamel to establish contact and clarification of terms
2. The combination of enamel with other materials: historical and modern approach.
3. The sequence of work on the creation of works: the main stages (sketch, cardboard, Cutting metal, wood and other materials, methods of handling them).
4. Working with enamel: the basic colors, methods of application and firing.
5. Assembling parts into a whole. Features of this phase.
6. Using paints (acrylic, oil, etc.)
7. Errors and their analysis.

During the master class I will give some theoretical lectures and show an example of its work, the sequence of creation
Students will be able, a course, create their work
They will be able to experiment with other materials in combination with enamel
The result will be the independent work of each student.
As an optional course I would like to talk about contemporary art of enamel in the European part of Russia (Moscow, St. Petersburg, Caucasus), its development and trends.
